Calculation

This document outlines various formulas used in weaving calculations. It discusses reed count, reed width, cloth cover factor, crimp percentage, loom speed, loom efficiency, fabric specification, weight of yarn in a cloth, linear and square yards/hours produced, and rate of filling insertion. Examples are provided to demonstrate how to use the formulas to calculate specific values like linear yards produced per hour and rate of filling insertion in meters per minute.

Different Formulas of Weaving Calculation:

Reed Count

It is calculated in stock port system.No. of dents in 2 inches is called Reed Count.

EPI

Reed count = ..

1 + Weft crimp percentage

Reed Width

100 + Weft crimp percentage

Reed Width = Cloth width X .....................

100

Cloth Cover Factor

EPI

1. Warp cover factor = .

Warp Count

PPI

2. Weft cover factor = ..

Weft Count

Wp.C.F. X Wt.C.F.

3. Cloth cover factor = Wp.C. - F Wt.C.F +

28
Crimp % :

Crimp Percentage is defined as the mean difference between the straightened thread length and the
distance between the ends of the thread while in cloth, expressed as a percentage.

Warp length - Cloth length

Warp crimp% = .. X 100

Cloth length

Weft length - Cloth length

Weft crimp% = .. X 100

Cloth length

Loom:

Motor pully diameter

Loom Speed = Motor RPM X .....

Loom pully diameter

Actual Production

Loom Efficiency (%) = .. X 100

Calculated Production

Fabric Specification:

EPI X PPI

Fabric specification = . X Fabric width

Warp count X weft count

Or
Warp count X weft count

Fabric specification = . X Fabric width

EPI X PPI

Weight of yarn in a cloth:

The weight of cloth manufactured on looms depends upon the weight of yarns in the warp and weft:
ends/inch, picks/inch and the weight of size on the warp.

Therefore, Cloth weight = Weight of warp + Weight of weft + Weight of size (All in lbs.)

Total No. of Ends X Tape Length in Yds.

Where as Weight of warp in lbs. = ..

840 X Warp Yarn Count

Length of Cloth (Yds) X Picks / inch in Cloth X Reed Width (inch)

Also Weight of weft in lbs.= .

840 X Weft Yarn Count

Weving Calculations:

Calculating linear yards of fabric produced on a weaving machine per hour of operation can be done
using the following formula:

Linear Yards/Hour = (picks per min. / picks per in.) x (60 min. per hr. / 36 in. per yd) x loom efficiency (%)

Linear Meters/Hour = (picks per min / picks per centimeter) x (60 min. per hr. / 100 cm per meter) x
loom efficiency (%)

Square Yards/Hour = Linear Yards Per Hour x Fabric Width (Yds.)


Square Meters/Hour = Linear Meters Per Hour x Fabric Width (Meters)

Rate of Filling Insertion (Yards/Min) = Loom Speed (Picks/Min) x Loom Width (Yds.) x Loom Efficiency (%)

Rate of Filling Insertion (Meters/Min) = Loom Speed (Picks/Min) x Loom Width (Meters) x Loom
Efficiency (%)

Exmple of Weving Calculations:

Example-1:

What are the linear yards of fabric produced on a machine running 650 picks per minute, inserting 58
picks per inch, and operating at a 92% efficiency?

Linear Yards/Hour = (picks per min. / picks per in.) x (60 min. per hr. / 36 in. per yd) x loom efficiency (%)

Linear Yards/Hour = (650picks per min. / 58picks per in.) x (60 min. per hr. / 36 in. per yd) x .92 loom
efficiency

Answer: 17.2

Example-2:

What is the rate of filling insertion in a loom running 720 picks per minute with a width of 2.5 meters at
93% efficiency?

Rate of Filling Insertion (Meters/Min) = Loom Speed (Picks/Min) x Loom Width (Meters) x Loom
Efficiency (%)

Rate of Filling Insertion (Meters/Min) = 720(Picks/Min) x 2.5 (Meters) x .93 Loom Efficiency

Answer: 1674 meters of filling inserted per minute
